Abstract
A tile-mount for mounting tiles on a wall surface. The mount plate has at least one projection extending in a longitudinal direction thereof and base portions. The top surface of the projection has vertically spaced engaging members, and, each of tiles has an engaging portion which engages with the engaging members, and when the base portions are connected to a surface of a foundation, a longitudinally extending passageway is formed between the foundation and the mount plate, which passageway allows rain water or condensation to be exhausted therefrom.
Claims17
A mount plate of a single body for tiles having a corrugated plate form and capable of being mounted on a building foundation as a basic wall, which comprises:
- a plurality of base portions capable of being mounted on the foundation, said plurality of base portions being horizontally spaced and extending substantially vertically;
- a plurality of projected portions projecting outwardly from and between corresponding adjacent base portions of said plurality of base portions, each of said plurality of projected portions extending substantially vertically and being laterally spaced by base portions so that each of said plurality of projected portions forms a mounting surface for tiles at a top wall thereof, and defines a substantially vertically extending recessed portion between a rear side of a top wall of each of said plurality of projected portions and the foundation;
- and
- engaging members formed on each of said top walls of each of said plurality of projected portions for engaging with said tiles, said engaging members being vertically spaced so that at least two of said engaging members are capable of engaging each tile.
A device for mounting tiles comprising a plurality of mount single body plates adjoining each other along at least one of a lateral and a vertical direction, each of said plurality of mount plates having a corrugated plate form to be mounted on a building foundation, and each of said plurality of mount plates comprising:
- a plurality of base portions capable of being mounted on the foundation, said plurality of base portions being horizontally spaced and extending substantially vertically;
- a plurality of projected portions projecting outwardly from and between corresponding adjacent base portions of said plurality of base portions, each of said plurality of projected portions extending substantially vertically and being laterally spaced by base portions so that each of said plurality of projected portions forms a mounting surface for tiles at a top wall thereof, and defines a substantially vertically extending recessed portion between a rear side of a top wall of each of said plurality of projected portions and the foundation;
- and
- engaging members formed on each of said top walls of each of said plurality of projected portions for engaging with said tiles, said engaging members being vertically spaced so that at least two of said engaging members are capable of engaging each tile.
A wall assembly comprising a foundation as a basic wall;
- at least one mount plate for tiles having a corrugated plate form fixed to said foundation, said mount plate for tiles comprising:
- a plurality of base portions mounted on said foundation, said plurality of base portions being horizontally spaced and extending substantially vertically;
- a plurality of projected top surface portions projecting outwardly from and between corresponding adjacent base portions of said plurality of base portions, each of said plurality of projected top surface portions extending substantially vertically and being laterally spaced by base portions, and defining a substantially vertically extending venting passageway between a rear side of a top wall of each of said plurality of projected portions and said foundation;
- and
- engaging members projecting outwardly from said projected top surface portions, said engaging members being vertically spaced so that at least two of said engaging members are capable of engaging each tile;
- and
- a plurality of tiles being located on said plurality of top surface portions, with each of said plurality of tiles including at least two engaging means engaging with at least two vertically spaced engaging members.
A wall assembly comprising a foundation as a basic wall;
- a plurality of mount plates for tiles, with each of said plurality of mount plates having a corrugated plate form fixed to said foundation, each of said plurality of mount plates comprising:
- a plurality of base portions mounted on said foundation, said plurality of base portions being horizontally spaced and extending substantially vertically;
- a plurality of projected top surface portions projecting outwardly from and between corresponding adjacent base portions of said plurality of base portions, each of said plurality of projected top surface portions extending substantially vertically and being laterally spaced by base portions, and defining a substantially vertically extending venting passageway between a rear side of a top wall of each of said plurality of projected portions and said foundation;
- and
- engaging members projecting outwardly from said projected top surface portions, said engaging members being vertically spaced so that at least two of said engaging members are capable of engaging each tile;
- and
- a plurality of tiles being located on said plurality of top surface portions, with each of said plurality of tiles including at least two engaging means engaging with at least two vertically spaced engaging members.
